The new DJI Mini 4 Pro is a very good upgrade in my opinion. Some call it only a icremental upgrade but in my opinion the camera quality that comes out this little drone is again a step up compared to the Mini 3 Pro however it's (nearly) the same lens. But DJI did certainly some (software)magic to make it better again. The 360 obstacle detection works great for my usecases. So I am totally happy with the upgrade from my Mini 3 Pro sofar.
I made a short video to show you the camera quality, all settings auto in D-Log M mode with just a little colorgrading:
Enjoy the video, feel free to give your comment(s).

Remarkable views. Congrats on upgrading to the Mini 4 Pro. It does appear that DJI applied some "pixie dust" type magic to the software. I bought the Air 3 and was going to upgrade the Mini 3 Pro but the Air 3 does all I need so I held off on upgrading the Mini 3 Pro. I rarely use OA so that was not an enticement for me.

Thanks, I'm very happy with the video quality that comes from this drone. I've also got a Mavic 3 Classic for flying in stronger winds (we have a lot in NL) and I love the big sensor of that drone. I use the Mini 4 Pro for travel and the Classic for windy conditions and (semi) professional work. Still debating with myself if I want to change from the Mavic 3 Classic to the Air 3 or wait for a new version of the Air 3 (s) or Pro with a bigger sensor. The telephoto lens of the Air 3 is very tempting and looks like a creative game changer , but the smaller sensor compared to the Mavic 3 Classic Hasselblad is it good enough? I just don't know if the change is worth it?
What is your own experience with the Air 3 sensor and video quality?, it's the same as the Mini 4 Pro.

I think you have a nice combo already and no need to buy the Air 3. I'd hold off and see if the Air 4 comes with a larger sensor.
